EURUSD weekly: euro drops 111 pips to 1.14817, 2026-09-14
EURUSD gave up 111 pips over the week of 14 September 2026, with the whole loss landing in a single Wednesday session that broke 1.1500.
4 min readGBPJPY trades at 212.115 as of Wednesday's close, up from Monday's open of 212.599 by roughly 48 pips lower on the week to date. The high so far is 212.896, printed Monday. The low is 209.57, also Monday, when price flushed more than three big figures before recovering. Since then the range has narrowed hard.
The bundle carries no scheduled events or headlines for the front half of this week, so the story is pure price action. Monday delivered the volatility: a swing from 212.896 down to 209.57 and back to a 211.526 close. Tuesday steadied and closed at 212.11. Wednesday has been the quietest session yet, a 211.697 to 212.181 band on sharply lower volume of 37,490 versus Monday's 191,355. That drop in participation says the market is waiting rather than committing.
The calendar in this bundle is empty for the back half of the week, so there is no single high-impact print to anchor Thursday and Friday. That puts the burden on price levels and cross-market flow. Watch GBP/USD for the sterling leg of the move: if the pound firms broadly there, GBPJPY tends to follow. If yen strength returns, the pair leans back toward Monday's lows. With no data to force a break, the two remaining sessions may hold the current compression until one side gives.
As of Wednesday, 55.5 percent of positioning is long and 44.5 percent is short. That is a mild long lean, not a crowd. It fits a market that bought Monday's dip and is now holding above 212.00 without conviction on either side. A skew this shallow rarely dictates direction on its own.
The 212.00 round number is the pivot. Price closed both Tuesday and Wednesday just above it, and Wednesday's low of 211.697 held on the retest. If buyers keep the pair above 212.00 into Thursday, Monday's 212.896 high comes back into view. If 211.697 breaks and 212.00 flips to resistance, the gap down toward Monday's 209.57 low reopens.
